ABOUT preity zinta

Preity Zinta: A Trailblazing Actress and Entrepreneur Preity Zinta, a prominent figure in Hindi cinema and the Indian business world, carved a distinct path for herself, both on and off screen. Her career began with a Filmfare Best Female Debut award for her roles in Dil Se.. and Soldier (1998). Subsequently, she gained recognition for her portrayal of a teenage single mother in Kya Kehna (2000), showcasing her range and willingness to tackle unconventional roles. Zinta's rise to stardom solidified with critically acclaimed performances in films like Chori Chori Chupke Chupke, Dil Chahta Hai, and Kal Ho Naa Ho (for which she won a Filmfare Best Actress award). Her roles frequently depicted independent, modern Indian women, as seen in commercially successful films such as Koi... Mil Gaya, Veer-Zaara, Salaam Namaste, and Kabhi Alvida Naa Kehna. Her foray into international cinema with Heaven on Earth (2008) earned her a Silver Hugo Award for Best Actress and a Genie Award nomination. Beyond acting, Zinta's entrepreneurial ventures are noteworthy. She founded PZNZ Media, co-owns the Punjab Kings IPL team, and owns the Stellenbosch Kings in the South African T20 Global League. A vocal public figure, Zinta's courage was highlighted during the 2004 Bharat Shah case, where she stood firm as a key witness, earning her the Godfrey Phillips National Bravery Award. While her later self-produced film, Ishkq in Paris (2013), failed to achieve the same success, her contributions to Indian cinema and her multifaceted career remain substantial.
